    UDS help please

    I making me a UDS and was wondering if it ok to use an elbow on the exhaust? All of the ones I see have a straight pipe. I've been thinking about using a 2" elbow so if I'm smoking and it starts to rain I wouldn't have to worry about the rain going inside the smoker. Thanks,in advance.
